Honest debates???

[kalimgoodman]

I ask, do you guys care to debate and understand difference opinions on this board or do you guy just want to attack difference opinions?

I am all for debating but I notice that this board isn't about that lately. If I don't fit the expectations, I'll gladly walk away and focus on why I'm even on this site, for gators football.

Many people on today's internet don't know how to debate. They just want to say their piece over and over, insult you then declare victory.

No disrespect, but online debating is useless. Do you really think you will move our opinions? Because I know for sure we won't change yours, so why bother? All it will do is galvanize your already-set opinions.

It used to be better. In the early days, the people who got on generally had something working upstairs. Now anyone gets on.

Fair. Most people are aware that you won't change opinions or thoughts, especially in politics. It's more respectfully understanding that someone see the world differently than you.

Like in sports, you could say Brady is the greatest and I can say Manning is the greatest. We can both debate why we think that way but the debate doesn't typically end with calling someone a liar, fake, clown or any negative words.

It's more of ok, I see why you think that and see why I think that.

That's exactly the truth. I want to be able to have an opinion and not have to deal with insults. There is never a winner in an internet debate.

Well you have Gay Ray and BScuck. This is their manner of debate as depicted below. Poor Kalim is just a redshirt freshman and can't get any snaps with the 2nd team so he'll eventually learn.

I’ve had my mind changed - or at least evolved a position - many times on this board.

@EvilWayz and @GatorTheo and @GhostOfMatchesMalone have all caused me to look at some specific situations differently.

Nothing has changed my core beliefs, but I’ve certainly gained new knowledge from many posters here.

It’s somewhat useful or I wouldn’t be here. I typically gravitate towards unconventional thinkers. Anyone can parrot talking points.

It's easy to go from right to far right. Have you ever went from right to moderate?

I just have a different view on my expectations

Honest in the title??? Focus on that imho.

I sense the Trumpers main form of debate, a useless meme, coming into play here.

But no, these dorks are to insecure to have an actual debate.

.I, of course, as the senior member of this group, am the exception.

Senior member my ass. I've got swimmers older than you on Gatorbait. We've been ignoring you about as long as you've been stinking up the joint going way back. We tried tying a pork chop around your neck so the Dawgs would play with you, but to no avail.

 

[NavigatorII]

What?

"snicker". Even "Badselectioncommitee" couldn't get laid in a women's prison with a fist full of pardons.

 

[BamaFan1137]

If gender is the debate, how can this be debated?



This isn't reasonable or rational. To defend this is to defend the rationality of those who are mentally ill. Doing so isn't kindness...it's cruel.

 

[EvilWayz]

Tiktok is the bane of my existence.

 

[kalimgoodman]

That's the thing.

Ray could honestly think Biden is doing a good job. Kalim could honestly think Trump is not being prosecuted based only on politics. Orange could honestly think Biden sucks and Bama could honestly think Trump prosecution is only based on politics.

It doesn't make anyone of us liars to believe something different. All of us should be able to share how we got to honest opinions with a rebuttal.

Instead I see too much name calling and immature fighting because we honestly have different beliefs.

 

[BSC911]

What?

Well, except for you. LOL.

 

[EvilWayz]

And Navi cuz he's been here longer than me.

 

[GhostOfMatchesMalone]

Liberalism in a nutshell.

Piss off, liberal dipshit.

I honestly don’t remember that guy ever posting until the new Ghost showed up. I assumed he was one of his acolytes.

Maybe he just wasn’t memorable.

I don't believe anything that you just typed. Further I don't believe that you do either. If I'm wrong, so be it.

Those people are mentally ill. It doesn't matter what they believe.

I love Navi but you do tend to stand out. Not that Navi doesn't but who stands out more than an America loving Marine tatted ankle to ear hole who loves logic but challenges conventionalism despite being a conservative.

You are an Enigma. I've got your back but if I'm honest, sometimes I have no idea where it is. 😂

I am an enigma, wrapped in puzzle, shrouded in mystery, and smothered in secret sauce.

I remember a dweeb that called himself Badselectioncommittee. BONG, Gecko, Swami, GatorGray, Ghost (Space)heater, Trip, Blueeyed, Rugby, Sad, et all ignored you like the nosepicking dork that you were on the football board.
I'm guessing "Olympic sports" doesn't translate well to football? 😂

 

[BSC911]

Possibly. I was mainly on the paid recruiting board back then but the Gators have been bad for so long I’ve had to delve into the slime here.

No offense. 😜

I disappeared from these boards pretty much during the Yeller Toof era. It was too much to bear. I came back when Mullen got hired. He too broke my heart. 😣

I hate to break it to you, but if you learned anything here from Ghost that wasn't "Trumplestiltskinites aren't just wrong, they're mentally stunted cultists" then it's not looking great.

I am not sober enough to understand this reference unaided so kindly explain yourself sir. And leave the koalas out of it.

I'm calling the God Emperor Rumpelstiltskin because why not? I'm dubbing his loyal worshipers Trumpelstiltskinites. I don't make the rules.
